The Pacers completed their worst season since 1984-85 with just 25 wins. A redirection and reset was necessary, but it cannot become the norm. It’s good to be back behind a microphone and talking with you once again. This one is just me — and there’s a lot of ground to cover.

Among the items discussed on this episode:

• Facts and figures that define this past season.

• The need for an identity, a leader and most of all, good health.

• The Cavaliers failing the themselves and the Pacers, thus retaining their 2022 first-round pick.

• Clarification on Rick Carlisle speaking out.

• Missing out on the playoffs and a few Pacers motivated to go through that experience.

• Why the Pacers have more open home dates in March the next two seasons.

• Players' contracts situation.
